The CAR T-Cell Therapy Clinical Journey Guide

Additional Resources

There are hundreds of free or discounted services for those being treated for cancer and their families. This page shows only a fraction of them. We encourage you to reach out to patient organisations for help. Most list resources on their websites and all have helplines where you can request individual assistance.

The resources here are divided into the following sections:

Patient Organisations

These include disease information in printed and digital form, videos, live webinars, in-person events (to resume post-COVID-19), assistance in finding a clinical trial, financial assistance, counselling services, research funding, policy advocacy efforts, professionally led online support groups, discussion boards, pet care support and more.
